The average of the present ages of Sachin and Saurabh is 36 yr. If Sachin is 8 yr older than Saurabh, what is the saurabh's present age?
-
- 30 yr
- 34 yr
- 32 yr
- 40 yr
Correct Option: C
∵ Total age of Sachin and Saurabh = 36 x 2 = 27 yr
Let age of Saurabh = x yr
Then, age of Sachin = (x + 8) yr
According to the question, x + x + 8 = 72
⇒ 2x = 64
∴ x = 32
Hence, Saurabh's present age = 32 yr
